Questions
Can Producepak be set up for our onion grades and pack formats?
Yes. Grades, sizes, pack formats, labels and QC templates for onion are configured during setup, typically within 1–4 weeks.
How does onion traceability work?
Each delivery is received as a lot. Grading and packing consume those lots, and every carton and pallet label carries the lot, so a forward or backward trace is one search.
Does it work on tablets in the packhouse and cool room?
Yes. Producepak runs on Android, iOS and Windows devices with barcode scanners and label printers.
